This inventionurelatesto the. manufacture of new chromiferous dyestufisrbyitreatmg, with anagent yie1ding'chromium,-a; mixture of monoazo- 1 dyestufis capable of being 'chromedwhichcon- .tains at least, one azo-dyestufi of the general formula:

I. PB c i wherein R1 is a naphthalene, radical, R2 a naphthol radical and n equals l, .2 or 3 and wherein thehydroxyland the azo-group are in orthoposition to each other; the agent yielding 'chromium being an alkalinechromium oxide solution used in such proportion that there is at least j oneatom of chromium present'for each group capable of being chromed in'th'e azoJ-dyestufi.

4 Mixtures of monoazo-dyestufi's capable of be ing chromed suitable for use as parent materials in this invention may contain, besides one or more azo-dyestuifs of the above general formula, one or more other monoazo-dyestufis' capable of being chromed; I 1 v The azo-dyestuff's of the abovegeneral formula may be made, for example, from diazotized l-amino-2-hydroxynaphthalene-4-sulfonic acid, diazotized 2 amino 1 hydroxynaphthalenel-sulionic acid, 6-bromoor-6-chloro--lor fi-nitro-l-diazo-2-hydroxynaphthalenee4rsulfonic acid, diaz-' otized 2-amino-1-hydroxynaphthalene-4,6+disul ionic acid, diazotized 2-amino-1hydroxynaphthalene-4,8-disulfonic acid and lor 2-:hydroxynaphthalene or a substitution product thereof, for-example, chloro-, bromo methyl-, or alk'oxyhydroxynaphthalene, while the other :monoazodyestuff or dyestufis capable of being chromed maybe obtained from diazotized aromatic amines of the benzene or naphthalene series. and any coupling component for example, an-arylamine, 1

a phenol or a compound whose carbon atom, cape able of beingcoupled, belongs toa heterocyclic ring or to an open chain. Couplingcomponents Whose carbon atom capable of being coupled be longs to a heterocyclic ring are for example, pyrazolones, hydroxyquinolines and barbituric acids While aceto-acetic acid derivatives and benzoyl aceto-ortho carbonic acids'are coupling compo- 1 nents of which the carbon: atom: capable oi'bein' coupledbelongs to an open' a, i

The treatment of the mixture or azo-dyestufis capable of being chromed'fwith aproportion of! alkaline chromium oxide solution (alkali chromite or alkaline earth chromite) which contains at least one atom of chromium for each group capa ble of being chromed'i'n the azo-dyestufimay be I conductedin an open vessel or under pressure and.

in presence or absence of suitable additions, for example, a soluble inorganic or organic salt or some other substance.

Especially valuable chromiferousy dyestuffs are obtained when a mixture of azo-dyestufis, capableof being chromed, is usedthat-containsatf least one azo dyestuffof the general formula:

I /OH N=N R wherein the hydroxyland the azo-group are in ortho-position to each other and wherein nequals PATENT p m- 1; 2 or 3 and R'is-a naphtholresidue. f Azo-dyegi,

stuffs of this general, formula can be; made by. couplingfor example, diazotized I-amirio-Z-hy 'droxynaphthalene--sulfonic acid or diazotized Z-amino-1-hydroxynaphthalene 4 sulfonic acid with an hydroxynaphthalene such as 1 or 2-'hydroxynaphth alene l By use of this mixture chro- 1 miferous dyestuffs dyeing ,navy p blue are obtained which, as compared with the dyestuffs hitherto known 'asdyeing in like tones and'belonging to this group ofjdyestufis, are leveleven infldyeing j deep tones: and arefast in every respect; ,atthef same timethe'dyestuffs of the above formula used 851,2

The process of this invention mayalso be car-5 ried out in a very simple manner byconductin'g as parent materials are easily'accessible.

the production of the monoazodyestuifs capable of being. chromed and the treatment of themixturecontaining these monoazoedyestuffs --,with. the alkaline chromium oxide sqlution'inca corn 1 bined' operation; thusthe coupling of thediazo compounds withthe, coupling components may occur in presence of the alkaline chromium oxide solution and then the, chroming of the mixture of monoazo-dyestuffs capable of being chromed, which is obtained, may be completed without separating it by heating the whole.

The chromiferous, dyestuffsobtainable by the invention are, characterized by verygood solutroduced into the solution.

2; imal fibres, for instance, wool and silk. In dyeing wool the process may conveniently be that described in Patent 1,903,884 or dyeing may be 6 carried out in dye-baths containing an aromatic acid besides an inorganic acid. I

The following examples illustrate the invention, the parts being by weight. The relationship between parts by weight and parts by volume is 10 that which exists between the kilogram and the litre.

J Example 1 i 195 parts of a freshly precipitated chromium hydroxide paste correspondingwith 26.2 parts of parts of caustic potash of 90 per cent strength and whilst stirring 83.2 parts of .the azo-dyestuff of the formula N N I 1 from nitrated 1-diazo-2-hydroxynaphthalene-4- sulfoni'c-acid and Z-hydroxynaphthalene are in- The whole is now heated whilst stirring for 10-12 hours at 75-78 C. and then for 2 3. hours at 80-85" C. After this time a sample strongly diluted with water ought to dye wool in a bath,,feebly acid with sulfuric, acid and in weak dyeings, a blue-grey which is not changed to another tint when [spotted with sodium carbonate solution. The. whole is now diluted with 200 parts of water and I mineral acid is added carefully until the reaction. 5 is only feebly alkaline and the dyestuff is there-f upon salted, out.

fIhe new chromiferous dyestuff thus obtained dyes wool in an. acid bath blue-grey to-blacklblue tints of verygood fastnesa' Instead of starting from the finished azo-dyestuils' these may be produced inthe potassium chromite] solution by dissolving in the latter 2- hydroxynaphthalene, introducing dia'zotized 1- amino-2-hydroxynaphthalene-4-sulfonic acid at 6flg'20 C. and then nitr'ated l-diazo-Z-Ihydroxynaph thalen'e-4-sulfoni'c acid at -5 C. whereby coupling is effected.

, I Example 2 6 -In a'potassium chromite solution made from 172 partsof chromium hydroxide paste corresponding with 15 per cent of CH0: and 1'75 parts of'caustic potash of 90 per cent strength'there aredissolved at about 60 C. 46 parts of Z-hydroxynaphthalene of the formula bility in water; they are suitable for dyeing an- CrzOa are dissolved at 75 C. by means of 180 Q The solution is cooled while constantlystirring to 10-15 C. and there is gradually. introduced a paste of about 55 per cent strength of 50 parts of diazotized 1-amino-2-hydroxynaphthalene-4- sulfonic acid of the formula soiir to 810 C. and very gradually a neutral solution, as concentrated asjpossible, of the. diazo-com- 'pound from 20.3 parts of 1-hydroxy-2-amino-4- -methyl benzene-fi-sulfonic acid of the formula NHa ums

is added/As soon as the whole of the diazocompound has reacted the whole is heated whilst stirring for 12 hours at .74-78 Grand then for 4 hours at -8085 C: Dilution with 400 parts of water, cautious neutralization with sulfuric acidi of 10 per cent strength and isolation of thenew' I blue-violet chromiferous dy'estufl by salting out,

filtering and drying.

The dyestuff dyes wool in a sulfuric acid bath reddish blue tints of excellent fastness;
